I was standing in the kitchen, when hubby came walking through. I gave him a hug and all of a sudden it occurred to me that I wasn't leaning in to hug him. My tummy has been in the way for years, but now I can stand up straight to hug him. He noticed too, it was awesome. :)

My first NSV is that my hip has not been hurting me since I had surgery. It's amazing what the few pounds I lost on my preop diet and since surgery have done for me. I was having to take a strong NSAID for my hip and another pill to keep the NSAID from messing up my stomach. Now, I don't even need to think about it. My knees feel better too. YAY!

I was weeding the garden yesterday, stood up and my pants fell down to my ankles. Ooops!!! Luckily I was alone.

On the last notch on my belt.

I laughed out loud so hard - I wish I had been there! I can so relate because none of my pants fit me anymore and I have gone through all of my small sizes.:scared0:

I love this thread, we are all so blessed to have been given this opportunity to lose weight. My favorite NSV is that I am virtually sweat free! I was ALWAYS a head sweater (the worst kind to be) running around with nasty wet hair, sooo embarrassing! We were at the zoo recently on a humid 90 degree day and my husband kept inspecting my face and head for any signs of sweat, I was totally sweat free, that alone is worth $16000.00! ;)

That is so cool. I have always been the same way. I so look forward to my 1st sweat free summer day.

I'm 8 days out and had a couple of NSV's today.

1. A shirt that did not fit me becasue it was too small before surgery fit me perfectly today.

2-4. I had 3 different people on 3 different occasions today tell me that they can tell I'm already losing weight because my cheeks aren't as puffy as they remember.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
